  Please check the attached screenshot picture. 
  No this issue in ESXi with intel CPU. 

  The comment from dev Nick Shi in VMware:
    Native install on AMD physical machine (HP DL385) did not allow to open the screen either
  You can get more detail on vmware bugzilla:

  So hit the issue not only in ESXi with AMD CPU but also physical machine with AMD CPU.
